  Where were you when you first came here?

  2. friends

  i noticed in a couple of threads people discussing the impact this board would have on jw's with doubts coming here and reading the messages.

  it got me to wondering where most people that post here were at...what stage in their jw/ex jw process...when they started reading and/or posting here.

  also curious, when you did come here what was your main focus?

  I was still under their control when I found this site. Then I found out about the baptism questions.

  WTBS CHARGES £10 FOR INFO

  by JEMIMAH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the wtbs in the uk and all the relevant congregations have introduced a 10 charge for anyone wishing to see their personal files and info held under the data protection act.

  information includes publisher record cards, s77 forms, specialised sheperding lists and so on.. i presume that this just applies to the uk.

  does anyone know of any other countries that have started to apply charges?.

  Further evidence of what they really are.

  Why do they need records? Did Jesus keep written records? Di the apostles?

  Okay Fess Up: What's Your Handle Mean?

  by Mindchild in

  okay fess up: whats your handle mean?.

  my handle: mindchild comes from computer scientist and futurist dr. hans moravec: who wrote the book, the future of robot and human intelligence which is a book about when we will be able to construct machines capable of human intelligence and raises the possibility of uploading ourselves (every thought we ever had) into an android body much superior to the human ones we have now.

  i entertain the hope that not only will i live long enough to see this happen, i will transfer myself (the complete essence of what is me) into a body of my own choosing and become immortal if i so choose.

  That backmasking isnt as deliberate as it may sound. Try reversing lots of vocal sounds and a lot of them will seem to resemble something. Obviously some of it is deliberate, but some is innocent.

  I dont think anyone has any business telling people what they can listen to, watch, wear etc. Isnt the idea to first remove the plank out our own eye before removing the splinter out of others?

  If a persons conciense allows them to listen / watch / wear, then fair enough, we shouldnt judge them.
